A 32-year-old father drowned the day before Father’s Day after jumping into a Minnesota lake to rescue his 3-year-old who had tumbled off a bridge at a popular fishing spot.
Bystanders were able to safely bring the child ashore after Christopher Schultz, 32, leaped into Dead Shot bay on Detroit lake and kept the toddler afloat on June 15, according to local media reports. But rescuers could not reach Schultz, of nearby Frazee, Minnesota, who didn’t resurface after struggling to keep the child alive.
